Pitchwerks #5 – Pittsburgh City Councilman Dan Gilman works at the grocery store.

Pittsburgh City Councilman Dan Gilman works at the grocery store. OK, he’s really there to shop…but as a local councilman he is always selling the constituents, city council and local media on his vision for the city. He rightly points out that despite the fact that he is always on stage, his pitches normally get cut down to a single tweet or one-sentence soundbite. For his pitch, Councilman Gilman makes a convincing case for opening an office in Pittsburgh.
